If you're looking for a perfect present for a bee lover, bee keeper, or an avid honey eater, here are 25 beeautiful gifts to consider. These are eco-friendly, sustainable and all available in Australia plus many ship internationally..
I am obsessed with all things bees and honey related and get a real buzz finding books on bees, natural beeswax skin care, gourmet honey and fun bee themed stuff.
I think my honey obsession started at a young age when every year we would go to the agricultural section of the royal show and do the honey tastings - it was my favourite thing to do and I still love it.
For years I had a bee phobia to the point where I would literally run away if I saw a bee, much to the amusement of everyone around me. Super embarrassing too! All this aside, these days I'm encouraging bees in my garden and am fascinated with them and still a little over cautious.
I have found so many absolutely gorgeous bee and honey themed gifts, this list is my favourite finds.
Perfect if you're looking for a gift or just something for yourself.
